nvmyre 3 Report post Posted February 15, 2013 I did a 4.012 in lead up to last years nationals, but chose not to use that car because it might have been a bit controversial. With my actual nationals car, built the night before and untuned 4.73. Haven't spent any serious time trying to go faster but low 4's wouldn't be hard. You and I are still the only guys to go under 5. Quote 5 x National Champion 2 x National Enduro Champion 2 x HBMRC V8 Supercar Enduro Champion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

munter 153 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 So far it is a single lane straight, no braid and about 430mm long......it is painted though. You have to push the car.

shadow_rusty 41 Report post Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Hmmm, dragstrips can be fun... But a 'push' dragstrip?? Sounds a little too much like exercise... lol.

nvmyre 3 Report post Posted February 23, 2013 How's everyones national builds coming along? Munter are you going this year? We need the top 4 guys from club to take on these Wellington guys on their home track. Looking over previous nationals results, we have averaged two out of three podium positions in every class. Can we keep up the dominance???? Quote 5 x National Champion 2 x National Enduro Champion 2 x HBMRC V8 Supercar Enduro Champion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
